Snowing in the Valley

The snow and whirling wind and icy roads have hit the southern end of this valley this morning. Usually, it is the northern end that gets the brunt of the storms. Nestling and the foot of the 11,000 gigantic Nebo Mountain, we are like a little banana-belt. It was interesting watching the snowline fall from the top of the mountain range, inching down the mountain sides, until now the valley floor is enveloped in the white brilliance. The first photo shows a red tea rose loaded with snow as it danced in the whirling icy winds. The second is of the miniature roses that bloom in front of the east portico.
